Perseverance is the key to success. The unwavering determination and resilience keep us moving toward our goals, even when faced with obstacles or discouragement. In life, there will always be difficult people who try to hold us back or situations that test our strength. When challenges arise, and quitting seems like an easy way out, we must remind ourselves do not quit!
Instead Of Giving Into Doubt Or Frustration, Let’s Have Faith In God’s Plan. He Knows What Lies Ahead, And Has Equipped Us With The Strength And Ability To Overcome Any Obstacle That Comes Our Way. Ask God To Help You ~ Do Not Lean Unto Your Own Understanding!
While common sense may suggest, at times, throwing in the towel as a viable option, let’s approach this decision with prayerful consideration. Seek guidance from God before making such choices because sometimes quitting might not be right for us unless it goes against His teachings. It’s important to maintain an open line of communication with God each day – during morning quiet time or later on if you forget. Yes, it may seem easier said than done when faced with adversities that make quitting tempting, but remember that often when people quit something, many times there comes remorse in doing so. Hang in there your best, and ask God for wisdom and strength. ~ Bill Greguska
James 1:12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

An Inspirational Song ~ Don’t Ever Quit Fighting The Good Fight!
Do Not Quit Without Giving It Your Best Shot!
My mother, coaches, teachers, and others often told me not to quit. But, I can recall twice in my life that I wanted to stop living because of all the pain I was experiencing. The first was when I was in high school, and the second was when my wife divorced me. But I thank God for putting outstanding people in my life to encourage me and point me back to the Lord.
I Mention This Because We All Have Hit A Wall In Our Lives!
You, too, can overcome it with the help of God, as I did. Whatever you do, do not quit! Think of it this way: your doubts will starve when you feed your faith. When you feed your doubts, your confidence will starve. It is up to you what you are going to choose to do. I used to tell my kids Chris and Sherry that when they were going through a challenging time growing up, “40 pounds of pain often can give you 400 pounds of gain!“
Do Not Become Discourage Because Of Your Circumstances!
Keep Pushing On…Do Not Quit!
What Has God Promised?
God hath not promised skies always blue,
Flower-strewn pathways all our lives through;
God hath not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.
But God hath promised strength for the day,
Rest for the labor, light for the way,
Grace for the trials, help from above,
Unfailing sympathy, undying love.
God hath not promised we shall not know
Toil and temptation, trouble and woe;
He hath not told us we shall not bear
Many a burden, many a care.
God hath not promised smooth roads and wide,
Swift, easy travel, needing no guide;
Never a mountain rocky and steep,
Never a river turbid and deep.

A Little Bit About The Do Not Quit Poem!
The poem below, “Do Not Quit,” has been inspirational since my twenties. I am now in my fifties and still love it. I love it so much that I even put it on my evangelistic business cards to pass out to people. The words are real and can speak to every reader at some point!
When this poem talks about not quitting, I pray that people take that a little more seriously regarding marriage, friendships, jobs, or any other type of commitment. We must focus on those three simple words, “Do not quit.”
As coach Bear Bryant once said, “Never quit. It is the easiest cop-out in the world. Set a goal, and don’t quit until you attain it. When you attain it, set another goal, and don’t quit until you reach it. Never quit.”
The Do Not Quit Poem:
“When things go wrong, as they sometimes will when the road you’re trudging seems all uphill. When funds are low and the debts are high, you want to smile, but you have to sigh; when care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.
Life is strange with its twists and turns, as every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure would turn about when you might have won if you had stuck it out. So don’t give up. Though the pace seems slow, you may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out, The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, and you never can tell how close you are; it may be near when it seems afar, So stick to the fight when you’re the hardest hit; it’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.”

Find Courage
(This section is from The Book I wrote)
Lord, it has been said that only the strong survive. That is only true if we get our strength from you, Lord. That is what counts, not the courage that I can muster up on my own. I try to keep my head level and eyes focused on you in difficult times. You help me find the encouragement and strength I need in you, not in my power.
The world can be frightening. We consistently hear about horrific things in the local news, in the newspaper, on the radio, and on the internet. It helps to know that you are in control even when things are going wrong, or life seems unfair.
As your word says in 2 Timothy 1:7, you have not given me a spirit of fear; you have given me a spirit of power, love, and self-discipline. Please help me lean into you to gain the courage and strength I need each day and to put aside any fear that may raise its ugly head.
Joshua 1:9 ~ The LORD said, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged; for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”
I learned that courage was not the absence of fear but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. ~ Nelson Mandela, South African anti-apartheid revolutionary political leader and former President of South Africa.
